Smart Design Practitioners Titleblock

The Smart Design Practitioner Title Block object is designed to help oﬃces manage their Regulated Design Record obligations.

Based on The Revision History object from the Archicad native Libraries, it collects and displays data stored in the Project info and Layout Issue (Transmittal) History in a simple graphic form, as per the required Regulated Design record title block parameters.

INFO > In order to function correctly, the Smart Design Practitioner Title Block object must be placed on a Master Layout or directly onto a Layout.
